participate and pay attention

The important thing is that you do your homework, and once you've made a choice participate and pay attention. Things are different (in the US, anyway) than they were when I went to school lo these many years ago. You can't just hand them a paper sack with a sandwich and an apple in it and push them out the door. Today schools are designed so the kids get out, to a large extent, what the parents put in (I don't know what that says about boarding schools...) But anyway, pay attention. Make sure the choice was a good one, and make sure you're doing what you can to help your kids succeed.
